Deepest Apologies for the disappearing act I just pulled for the last week. I was whisked home to Seattle for a lovely week long vacation with friends, family, and the amazing city. It was such a wonderful trip filled with delectable meals, fresh seafood, The Market, a great show by Divine Fits, our cabin, and sailing with our father on Lake Washington. Oh, and these two little muffins…

Seattle never surprises me with its array of beauty (especially when the sun shines bright) and its amazing hospitality. For a big city, the people remain calm and friendly with smiles and Thank You’s. People help one another out. I am always amazed at all the water, channels, sloughs, rivers and bays that surround the entire area. Seattle is a giant outdoor playground and I am so lucky and happy to call it home.
